I just got my Logitech Cordless Comfort Laser. It's comfortable to type with.

On to my point though. I've got the mouse configured using evdev, and some of the buttons work. But this is very strange -- the scrollwheel's push left and right buttons both map to scroll lock, and for all purposes act as though they come from the keyboard.

I suspect this has to do with the keyboard and mouse sharing a single usb input, but doubt this is a problem by design.

Here's the relevant portion of my xorg conf so far (not much here):

Code:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "mouse"
    Driver         "evdev"
    # Option         "Name" "Logitech USB Receiver"
    Option         "HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" "8 9" # this is an effective noop
    Option         "Phys" "usb-0000:00:02.0-2/input1"
EndSection


Thanks...
~Stephen
